Thread: Commericial Truck Insurance

I currently have two vehicles on an auto ins. policy. One has full coverage and the other liability only. The preium is 730.00 per year.
Adding a commericial truck "full coverage" to the policy would increase the preium to aprox. 1450 per year.

So the difference of 720.00 is what it is going to cost for a commericial truck policy with full coverage.

Am I missing something here??? I always heard how outrageous insurance preiums were, that seemed alittle low to me,,,after hearing other business owners talk about their preiums.......

I told them it would would be a brand new truck and it would need full coverage insurance and that it would be for commericial use....They understood completly & wanted to quote me for a million dollar biz. insurance libality policy too.

This seemed way low to me....Well---not that low---but allot less then I expected after reading this site and talking to others the last six months.......This is a big name company too......National exposure.........

Is this 720.00 "PER YEAR" quote simuliar to what others are paying out there??? Or is this way low and something must be wrong???

Theres quite a bit of differance in prices on commerical insurance from company to company. Everyone needs a reliable company and a agent that will take the time to work with you to come up with a policy that fits your needs at a reasonable price.

One of the reasons commercial policies are more expensive is the fact that you will be on the road more driving, therfore more of a risk to the company, likely to cause more damage.... something along those lines.

Forget the fact that I maybe drive my work truck less than 20 miles a day and my personal truck more than 30 usualy.

Hey, if they offer that price with the coverage you need, don't complain, that's a good deal!

Also, my friend works for an insurance company and I actually just talked to her this afternoon to get the process going to have her qoute me for insurance now that my current policy is nearing the end of it's term. She also suggested that I put my wifes truck under the business name because current rates for standard auto insurance are getting quite pricey and I may be better off having it through the business. When I went to commercial insurance on the work truck, we lost the group rates on standard auto insurance in our home, therefore her truck went back up.

There are so many variables with this insurance BS it gets crazy. If you feel you get a good price and service just go with it. 10 guys will reply here and you'll get 10 different situations and prices.
